Suppose you have kept patch files in /tmp, issue the following commands: $ cd ~/src/krb5-1.2.2/appl/telnet/telnetd $ patch < /tmp/telnetd_122_patch.txt $ cd ~/src/krb5-1.2.2/appl/gssftp/ftpd $ patch < /tmp/ftpbuf_122_patch.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Marcio d'Avila Scheibler - Divisao de Suporte ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Centro de Processamento de Dados - Campus Universitario - CEP 97105-900 Universidade Federal de Santa Maria - RS - Brasil =============================================================================
